Hi, I'm not sure whether I'm right here with my problem. Searching for a repository for the software package SALOME for numerical simulation. I found via webpin http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Education:/Salome:/Factory/openSU… and installed the following packages: herbert@wodan:~> zypper se -r Education_Salome_Factory Daten des Repositorys laden ...

Reference: en.opensuse.org/Education/Development/Edu-CD Introduction ..... The Live DVD contains KIWI-LTSP server that can be enabled even by non-technical user, with tons of applications from openSUSE Education repository. With the KIWI-LTSP server you can PXE(network) boot other PCs to use this live DVD without installing or modifying anything on them. Booting from hard disk again will leave those PCs as they were. *** The above possibly might be changed to something like this: *** The Live DVD contains KIWI-LTSP server that can be enabled even by non-technical users, with tons of applications from openSUSE Education repository. For a demo or actual use. The DVD may be immediately booted in a networked PC. Boot the PC from the hard disk again for normal operation. KIWI-LTSP server demo and testing purpose only (Not for production use). With the KIWI-LTSP server you can PXE(network) boot other PCs to use this live DVD. Use a networked PC with a second NIC connected ONLY to a hub (or switch) and 1 to 5 PC's capable of PXE booting.

[opensuse-edu] Question on using Live DVD as KIWI-LTSP server to allow PXE boot
by Bob Neeper 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

I configured a VMware Server 1.0.8, virtual PC (2 NIC's) to boot the live-DVD. Then configured the LTSP function, etc. and PXE'd in from another virtual machine. linux1 login seems to be a sys admin account, as no password required for YaST, etc. Also the Live Installer icon is on the desktop and active. Is this okay running a thin client on the live DVD? (I realize in the long run there isn't a problem) Jigish Gohil previously emailed me this information about the 5 thin clients, which I'm trying to grasp. "Those users are only in live sessions, for security reasons we cannot have normal users with known password installed on everyone's PC." I don't understand the full value of using a live DVD as a PXE server. It works, is usable, good proof of concept., but each reboot requires re-configuration. Am I reading too much in, and it is just a demo and not for actual use ? Or am I just not using it correctly yet. Running in a virtual machine I could probably reconfigure users, desktops etc. Then possibly take a snapshot to maintain the revisions, but it may not work, being set for iso booting. I will eventually do the real install but would like to know more about this live session feature too. Thank you, Bob -- R. W.

[opensuse-edu] One way to run (and install) live DVD in VMware Server 2
by Bob Neeper 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Possibly this may have value to a user. It should be fairly accurate and repeatable. Bob A procedure (not the definitive method, just one way) followed to: Create a VMware Virtual Machine Run openSUSE Education liveDVD inside (for testing without burning) Install openSUSE Education inside Install a server version inside Check installation procedures Easily start over if needed Allow openSUSE Education to run concurrently with a main windows OS. PC used: Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop, Dual CPU T3400 @2.16GHz 2.17 GHz,3GB Mem,160GB HD,Vista Home Premium 32 bit With an ethernet connection, wireless, DVD/CD Ethernet connection cabled to our network Probably should have about 20GB free space The iso is about 3GB, Final VMware openSUSE Education machine is about 10 GB Free VMware product used: VMware Infrastructure Web Access 2.0.0 Build 128374 VMware Server 2.0.1 Build 156745 Note: VMware program installation is not described. Slight issues configuring Vista Home Premium to allow it to run. openSUSE Education reference Use a browser on the host PC with separate tabs to each site http://en.opensuse.org/Education http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Live This link on bottom of previous link http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Live/Install This link near bottom of previous link First: Create a virtual machine (Basically makes simulated h/w) Download, install and test VMware Server 2.0 Reference http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Live Download openSUSE-Edu-li-f-e-11.2-1-i686.iso and the MD5 hash file. (Or current files) Absolutely verify the download to the hash file data to guarantee a good iso. DigestIT 2004 was used. Store the iso in an easily found directory. VMware creates a Virtual Machines directory A sub-directory named Common was created to store the iso. This isolates the iso to help stop inadvertent deletion. Start VMware Infrastructure Web Access ~ Desktop Icon (It will run in IExplorer) During this procedure there is a series of windows to create the virtual machine. After entering data you may need to click Next to proceed. Highlight the Inventory Tab. (It indicates the Host PC name) Click the Virtual Machine tab then Create Virtual Machine Name and Location Name: Replace "Virtual Machine" with some name. Ex: openSUSE EDU Guest Operating System Click Linux operating Select the Version Ex: Suse Linux (32-bit) Memory and Processors (Memory can be adjusted after the machine is created) Size: 256 MB Ex: 1024 MB Minimum 512MB RAM+200M per thin client user Processors Count: 1 Ex: 2 Change as required I plan to use 2 as some performance issues with our current 11.0 server build. Thin client PXE booting seems erratic and general response sometimes slow. Hard Disk Click on Create a New Virtual Disk Properties Capacity: Ex: 20 GB should not need this much Location: Default used File Options: No selection. (Allocate immediately takes the full amount) Disk Mode: Default (Persistent) Virtual Device Node: Default (SCSI, 0) Policies: Default (Save before notification) Network Adapter: Add a Network This will be eth0 and connect to the main network Network Connection: Bridged Connect at Power on: Yes CD/DVD Drive Host Media: Use an ISO Image Properties Necessary to boot the openSUSE Education iso Browse to the image file Ex: [standard] Common/openSUSE-Edu-li-f-e-11.2-1-i686.iso Connect at Power On: Yes Virtual Device Node: Default (IDE1,0) Floppy Drive Not necessary to Add a Floppy Drive USB Controller Add a USB Ready to Complete Check what's been done Click More Hardware Click Finish instead if only ever to run a liveDVD. Click Network To be eth1 for thin clients. Network Connection: VMnet9 Wireless port on this PC, will be a NIC eventually Connect at Power On: Uncheck Yes Do not want NIC confusion on the installation After openSUSE is installed it will be changed Ready to Complete ~ again. Click Finish if everything looks correct A Green click box with Success in the Task window and openSUSE EDU in the Inventory window indicates the virtual machine is built and ready for running the live DVD, etc. Optional: Use Explorer to browse to c:\Virtual Machines\openSUSE (or name you selected) There should be 4 small files, less than 3mb total. Copy or zip the folder to some other location. These files describe the machine and can replace current ones to start over. At that time other files may also need deleted Second: Run the live DVD on the virtual machine. Start VMware Infrastructure Web Access Highlight "openSUSE EDU: in the Inventory tab (or the name you created) The right side window shows various tabs. Summary; Shows the configuration of the virtual machine just created. Console: click on this tab. A red square and Powered Off should be displayed Click on the Green triangle above the tab to start the virtualPC The message will change to Green triangle and Powered On Click in the window as indicated to open the console Another window will pop up with openSUSE starting The window will go black for a while then return to openSUSE Eventually you should see the desktop In this case the third window in the instructions did not display The live DVD is now running. Hover the mouse over the two pc's icon on the task bar and you should see: Wired network connection 'Auto eth0' active Right click on the icon and select Connection Information If your network has DHCP you should see the IP information. Open Firefox and browse. Etc., Etc. To shutdown do a normal shutdown and eventually the window will close leaving the main window open. You may click on Log to the right of the Green triangle or just close the IExplorer window Third Section: Installation of openSUSE on the virtual machine. From the liveDVD follow the procedure Education/Live/Install Click Live Installer Click Next for License Agreement Set / change date time time zone click next Click Edit Partition Setup (Partition changes for initial release only) Make note of the proposed setup Device Size F Enc Typ FS Type Label Mount Point /dev/sda 20.00 GB VMware,-VMware Virtual S /dev/sda1 1.48 GB F Linux swap Swap swap /dev/sda2 7.69 GB F Linux native Ext4 / /dev/sda3 10.82 GB F Linux native Ext4 /home Highlight the /dev/sda3 line, right click and delete Highlight the /dev/sda2 line, right click and Resize then Custom and enter 12GB Highlight the /dev/sda line, right click and Add Partition Select Primary and the remaining size. Format as Ext4, Select Mount Point as /home Compare the new proposed setup to original. It should be identical except /dev/sda2 is 12.00 GB and /dev/sda3 is 6.51GB Click Accept and Next Enter data for Create New User uncheck Automatic Login Finish install At the Reboot Select Reboot Later then do a normal Shutdown. The iso must be ejected before a reboot. After the window closes, return to the VMware Infrastructure Web Access window Click Summary Scroll down to the CD/DVD Drive 1 location Click the down arrow, then Edit Uncheck Connect at power. Click OK Reboot as previously to complete the installation. There should be an Automatic Configuration window on the reboot. Some downloads information will be displayed At the login screen select the user and enter the password You should now have a Gnome Desktop You can click the System Monitor for various status information Resources should show 2 CPU's, Memory, Swap and Network Activity NOTE: If desired, follow Optional: (see above) to save this machine for easy restoration. -- R.

[opensuse-edu] General frustration is clearing
by Bob Neeper 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Thank you Lars and Jigish for the information. I'll do a rebuild as suggested. Although I'm hesitant to change the wiki. Following is information and thoughts, no reply is necessary. (After exploring Li-f-e I may find my thoughts were not needed.) We are a small village library using open source when possible. Some other Ohio libraries do also. The State Library is even testing Evergreen for state wide use. Using Novell for years made openSUSE an obvious choice. openSUSE (as a PAC - Public Access Catalog) and EDU fits in our library patron environment quite well, when locked down. A semi-major library pushes Edubuntu, giving classes, CD's, PC's etc. to drum up use. I tout openSUSE on the OPLIN list server as an option but haven't felt comfortable to push EDU. openSUSE and the single user EDU are polished, easily installed, easily used by Windows oriented people. Or at least it seems easy to adjust/train them. But the EDU server/thin client version seems to require more setup involvement than many libraries can provide. For most libraries our size, or smaller, everything should be plug and play. Usually, no IT person is available. I think, to reach this market, the server installation needs to be extremely simple for non-technical people. Possibly a distribution to allow something like this: (an over-simplification) Requirement Description: 1 PC ~ x ghz, 2 NIC's, x Memory plus y more per user, xgb HD, etc. 1 to x PC's ~ x ghz, 1 NIC, x Memory, no HD, headphone, etc 1 switch, misc cables, etc. Instructions: Connect internet cable to NIC 1 Install s/w on main pc Boot, log on, do updates Run program Z to create Users & password, select icons for desktop, modify the K Menu to limit items shown EX: we have 5 users, 35 desktop icons and only Edutainment, Games and Multimedia on the K Menu Program Z should do it all. Or have a few individual programs with very simple steps to follow. Connect other PC's to the switch and the switch to NIC 2 Boot them and log on Thanks again, Bob R. W.

There seems to be way too much different docs, many misleading or wrong. It makes it very difficult to praise it for a library environment for non-technical staff. There doesn't seem to be much advancement since I managed to build a 5 thin client 11.0 server with locked down users. The Highlight blurb implies simplicity but it just isn't there. A pure Windows user would give up long ago. The Edubuntu install was a lot smoother but we want openSUSE.
